Venus Crescent Beam Smash

In Brief: I've always loved this first official attack of Sailor Venus. Not only does the animation sequence in the anime look incredible but it's the equivalent of a laser blast attack which also ranks as one of (if not the) most powerful attack out of the Inner's first generation of attacks.

Cultural:"A long-standing mystery of Venus observations is the so-called 'ashen light', an apparent weak illumination of the dark side of the planet, seen when the planet is in the crescent phase. The first claimed observation of ashen light was made as long ago as 1643, but the existence of the illumination has never been reliably confirmed. Observers have speculated that it may result from electrical activity in the Venusian atmosphere, but it may be illusory, resulting from the physiological effect of observing a very bright crescent-shaped object." -- From Wikipedia

The Move: In the anime, Sailor Venus summons a dual crescent moon symbol to appear in the air above her. The double symbols glow and are surrounded by a light cloud of bubbles. Sailor Venus reaches up and pops the symbols and bubbles with her index finger as the camera pans down and away while Sailor Venus draws in massive light energy to her finger tips. Very quickly she yells out the attack and a laser beam of pure light and energy blasts towards her target.
